   The food is excellent. Our chef, Jose, is the BEST cook! We love Benihana! Jadon, our waiter, was excellent! We love the chicken and rice, the salad, the vegetables, and the meat. We had chicken and steak! Jose cooked it just like we like it!

   Things were below average. We didn’t receive parts of the “six course meal.” It felt rushed to check out. I have been to many places like this one and this was over priced for the value of what you receive.

   We had a good experience overall! My only concern is that we had a reservation and although we were on time, we were not seated for 30 minutes. That’s annoying! They should do a better job at seating parties timely. I would have rated them excellent, had it not been for having to wait so long.

   Terrible experience. The chef did not put on any type of show. We had 3 kids, and were expecting a show, but left with disappointment.
